You don't need to change .attr() to .prop():

    "click.uniform touchend.uniform": function(){
        if(!$(elem).attr('checked')){
            //box was just unchecked, uncheck span
            spanTag.removeClass(options.checkedClass);

            //Added by PingOn
            $(elem).removeAttr('checked');
            //end addition by PingOn

            // Added by John
        }else if(!$(elem).is(':checked')){
            spanTag.removeClass(options.checkedClass);
            // end addition by john

            //Added by PingOn
            $(elem).removeAttr('checked');
            //end addition by PingOn
        }else{
            //box was just checked, check span.
            spanTag.addClass(options.checkedClass);

            //Added by PingOn
            $(elem).attr('checked','true');
            //end addition by PingOn
      }

Couldn't you use something like

$("#checkbox").attr("checked", "true");

to make the checkbox checked, and

$("#checkbox").removeAttr("checked");

to uncheck it?
